Josh Wilson CB, Maryland
BIOGRAPHY: Full-time starter the past two years, receiving both All-Conference and All-Academic honors since his junior campaign. Senior totals were 55/1/12, with a 27.3-yard average on 31 kick returns, bringing one back 100 yards for a touchdown.
POSITIVES: Fast cornerback who also impacts the game returning kicks. Displays speed in every direction, possesses a nice move to the throw and positions himself to defend the pass. Plays heads-up football, reads receiver.s eyes and locates the ball in the air.
NEGATIVES: Misjudges his pass defenses on occasion. Undersized and loses out in battles. Very quick out of his backpedal.
ANALYSIS: A feisty cornerback with top athleticism and a good degree of intelligence, Wilson offers terrific upside. May start his NFL career as a kick returner, yet has the abilities to develop into a starting cornerback.

Brandon Mebane DT, California
BIOGRAPHY: Three-year starter awarded All-Conference honors after his junior and senior campaigns. Totals last season were 52/10/4 after 39/9.5/7 the prior year.
POSITIVES: Explosive interior lineman who consistently gets penetration behind the line of scrimmage. Gets off the snap with a terrific first step, plays with leverage and good pad level. Tenacious, keeps his feet moving up the field and goes very hard.
NEGATIVES: Marginal hand technique and does not do a good job protecting himself. Handled at the point or turned from the action by larger opponents.
ANALYSIS: A defender with a nonstop motor, Mebane offers potential in a variety of systems. Has the mental makeup to play on the nose yet could also be effective as a conventional tackle.
